Week 2 - almost


Week two in Seattle – 10/8/12 – 10/12/12

Week 2 is (almost) over and the more time I spend here, the more I like it!
The weather is not the best anymore and it is becoming a bit colder – but still no rain!

Last week I told you about my lovely new “family” and about the food my host mom Betty is making for me.
This was my breakfast today  - Friday, and something like this is, what Betty is making to me every morning – she is just so sweet!

I have also been taking some photos of my room for the next two-month – it is very comfortable and I like it. As you can see is it already messy with my things, but that is just because I’m feeling like I’m “home”.






Monday after school Elise colored my hair – which I needed very much. Wednesday I went to a park and out for dinner with some of my classmates. Thursday after school Simone, Line, Elise, Cecilia and I were on café to plan our Big trip this weekend – I will tell more about that next week!

A great day with the whole class: 

But today – Friday, the whole class have been in Seattle Downtown together, so no classes!
The first thing we went to was the famous Space needle, where the view was fantastic. After that we went down to the harbor to get something to eat – of course was it chicken/fish and chips! When we had finished, we went to the Gum Wall – a huge wall where people puts their gum, a little bit weird, but still a cool and funny thing. After the Gum Wall, we all went to the Pike Place Market – a huge market where all the stuff is handmade. I liked that place very much and just enjoyed to look at all of the different and cool stuff people have been making. I walked with Line and Simone, where we found this really cool shop, where Line bought a nice thing to have her camera in and I found a lovely shirt! Simone and I also found the best hassle nut I have ever tasted. When we had been looking around for almost two hours, we had some time for our self. We took the monorail back to space needle and we went back to the school.
With the class went we to Alderwood Mall to have dinner and after that we all went bowling together – it has been such a good day!


The view is just so fantastic from the top in Space Needle – unfortunately was the weather not the best, so you could not see so far as normal, but it was still very beautiful!




The Gum Wall and this is actually not the whole wall! – the other picture shows Line, Simone and my contribution to the wall.





Some pictures from the Pike Place Market – a lot of people in a small place, but still a great place!

But as I told you, I have planned a trip for the weekend with 4 other girls – this is a trip to Canada, Vancouver from Saturday – Monday, I can’t wait! But I will tell you a lot more about that, when I come home.
To you in Denmark, have a great autumn holiday!

  1. ... After reading your post, I'm even more envious (which I didn't think possible!). The trip seems to develop into an unforgettable experience. Just remember not to fill your suitcase with clothes only two weeks in. Save some space for one of those paragliders to bring home - I'd really like to try one!
    I look forward to the next post of yours!

  2. The best part of this is when you said "because I am feeling at home"!!!!!!
